The U.S. Mint's bicentennial commemorative quarter for Minnesota features one of its nicknames (Land of 10,000 Lakes) inside an outline of the state, pine trees (the state tree is red pine), a common loon (state bird), and fishermen in a boat (the state fish is walleye pike). Minnesota became the 32nd state in 1858. Public domain image on Wikipedia.
